Biplav-led party cadre stages fast-unto-death

A cadre of Netra Bikram Chand-led Nepal Communist Party is staging a fast-unto-death to protest the government’s ban on the activities of the splinter group.

Padam Pokharel, a student leader affiliated with the group, was arrested a few days ago. Pokharel says that police arrested him without proof and added that he wasn’t involved in any untoward activities carried out by the Chand-led outfit.

He told Onlinekhabar that he has been treated badly in custody. However, DSP Nirmal Budathoki refused that police was harsh on the student leader and added that he has been treated like all other inmates.
